Abstract

A shield assembly (10) for use with a modular electrical connector (12) is provided by a shield housing (10) forming front, bottom and opposing side walls (30,38,40,40) with an open rear end and having a grounding clip (50) disposed on the distal end of a hingedly connected top wall (34) of the shield assembly for engaging the foil shield sheath (60) of the cable (14) and securing the shield in an enclosed position around the connector. The shield housing also includes a downwardly angled rear top wall portion for providing access to release means after the connector has been mounted to a faceplate panel.
